Joseph Brodsky


I do not believe in political movements. I believe in personal movement, that movement of the soul when a man who looks at himself is so ashamed that he tries to make some sort of change-within himself, not on the outside.

Lucille Ball


Knowing what you can not do is more important than knowing what you can do. In fact, that's good taste.

Aesop


Faithful are the wounds of a friend but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

R. Buckminster Fuller


Children are born true scientists. They spontaneously experiment and experience and reexperience again. They select, combine, and test, seeking to find order in their experiences - "which is the mostest? which is the leastest?" They smell, taste, bite, and touch-test for hardness, softness, springiness, roughness, smoothness, coldness, warmness: the heft, shake, punch, squeeze, push, crush, rub, and try to pull things apart.

Frederick Douglas


I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence.

Henry Ward Beecher


Besides anarchy, the worst thing in this world is government.
